I have found a work-around but not really a good one. By either using the Image Viewer 3rd party control or by creating our own custom control we can allow the user to select from a pref-defined list of url's that must be present in a table in the dashboard. Then the dashboard will pull the image by url when loaded. 

 

Not exactly what I was looking for, but thought I would mention this. I will keep this open and also created a user voice for this enhancement.
